Not great news coming from Mariupol.
Based on pro-Russian reports, most of the 36th brigade has surrendered after an unsuccessful attempt at breaking the siege. 1,200 soldiers POW.
This means that the northern front of Mariupol was captured, but Azovsteel still stands.

I doubt the alleged "1,200 soldiers" number, but there indeed was an attempt to break the siege, and at least 100 soldiers have been taken as POWs.
There is a chance that the rest of the brigade returned back to their positions, but need more info to know for sure.

Another update, coming from Ukr sources.
Several hundred soldiers managed to break the siege and get to the Azovsteel plant, joining the Azov regiment.
To sum it up: a group of soldiers tried to escape North and got captured. Rest successfully escaped south to Azovsteel.

With this, Ukr forces in Mariupol have 2 areas under their control remaining: Azovsteel (2K-5K soldiers), and the port area (300-1,500 soldiers). Both are located in the southern part of the city.
Azovsteel has plenty of supplies to keep on fighting, unlike the port area.
